Our 2015 Summer Reading Program will begin on July 6. This year’s theme is “Every Hero Has a Story.” We plan to explore the “everyday heroes” that are in our own community. These unsung heroes make a difference in the lives of others every day. Their stories of quiet heroism will inspire us all. Registration is now open during regular library hours.
